Text conversion bug with column selections

Post by gLes »

Hi!

When I select a column of text (by holding down the Alt key then click and drag the selection in a column) and I utilize some sort of text conversion on the selection for example Convert to Lowercase or Uppercase or Toggle Character Case, etc. then after the conversion the whole column is inserted in place of the first line of the column. For example:

<PARAM NAME="filename" value="video.wmv" />
<PARAM NAME="autoStart" value="false" />
<PARAM NAME="showStatusBar" value="false" />

Then I select the column containing only the PARAM NAME strings and I select Convert to Lowercase, I get this:

<param name
param name
param name="filename" value="video.wmv" />
<="autoStart" value="false" />
<="showStatusBar" value="false" />

It's obvious :)

Yes, you are correct. Currently column-based use of this feature is not possible, it is not yet implemented.

Not that it's such an important feature, but are you planning to implement it? :)

You are right, it should work in column mode. Although it is possible, it would take a lot of time to implement (due to tech reasons).

So while I have put this in the list, I must say that more important features and fixes should be done first, so I can not tell you when we could get to this.
